nuremburg redux

john bolton, bush crony and former american ambassador to the united nations, is taking a trip to wales today, where people are planning to arrest him for misleading the world on the war, and other miscellaneous douchebaggery.

don't know john bolton? let me get you up to speed.

from rightweb: Bolton has criticized the United Nations, lambasted U.S. efforts to diplomatically resolve the standoff with North Korea over its nuclear weapons program, and berated the "weak" international response after Iran apprehended several British soldiers for allegedly straying into Iranian waters, which he argued "emboldened" Iran, whose 'government today is a theological revolution on the march'. (note: seriously? don't pull that 'theological revolution' crap if you back a guy who supports intelligent design.)

among his other accomplishments are: leading in the 'successful effort to rescind the UN resolution from the 1970s that had equated Zionism with racism', 'being a a prominent participant in some neoconservative groups such as the Project for the New American Century [those neo-con 'new pearl harbor' wingnuts],' and 'derailing a 2001 biological weapons conference in Geneva convened to endorse a UN proposal to enforce the 1972 Biological Weapons Convention.' (source: wikipedia)

so yeah, this guy's basically one of the masterminds of the brilliant bush foreign policy that has made the rest of the world pissed off at us to the point that some welsh people at a faggy book festival are going to drop a citizen's arrest on him.

keep an eye on wales tonight - some crazy shit could go down. i'd love to see that precedent set up, so we can start taking down the big dogs.
